Hydrothermal origin of metabolic phosphorylation
Serpentinizing hydrothermal vents are candidate sites for biochemical origins. They generate extremely reducing conditions, depositing phosphite (HPO32−) and transition metals, including palladium, in the native (zero‐valent) state. Schlikker et al.

Solubility and Surface Complexation Studies of Apatites
Apatites are a diverse class of phosphate minerals that are important in a great variety of natural and industrial processes. They are, for example, used as raw material in fertiliser production and in the remediation of metal-contaminated soils ...

Key Points Higher laser repetition rate, fluence and larger spot size increase signal intensity. Higher laser repetition rate produces overlaps in aerosolised particles, improving signal stability and precision. For Sr‐rich materials, moderate spot diameter (≤ 60 μm), 3 J cm‐2 fluence and ≥ 12 Hz repetition rate are recommended.

Appraisal of Six Natural Mica Reference Materials for In Situ Rb‐Sr Geochronology
Key Points Evaluated six natural mica reference materials for in situ LA‐ICP‐MS/MS Rb‐Sr geochronology using geochemical, microstructural and isotopic characterisation. Identified robust primary reference materials: Mount Dromedary biotite (99.37 Ma) and Mica‐Fe biotite (307.75 Ma). La Posta biotite and Högsbo muscovite are suitable secondary reference

Laser-induced luminescence of rare-earth elements in natural fluor-apatites
The luminescence spectra of naturally occurring fluor-apatites containing traces of rare-earth elements have been compared with synthetic fluor-apatites to which single rare-earth elements have been intentionally added.

Afghanite: A New Silicate‐Matrix Reference Material for In Situ Halogen and Sulfur Microanalysis
Key Points A new silicate matrix reference material for in situ chlorine and sulfur determination. Homogeneous across all measured elements. No matrix effects for Cl when calibrating silicate matrices, in contrast to scapolite, which causes systematic Cl overestimation of up to 13%.

Quantification of Sulfur Speciation in Apatites: Comparison of the XAS, XPS and EPMA Techniques
Key Points Sulfur speciation in apatites has been determined by S K‐edge X‐ray absorption near‐edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy, S 2p X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and electron probe microanalysis (EPMA). XANES provides the most sensitive and accurate quantification of sulfur speciation.

Strontium coupling with sulphur in mouse bone apatites
One of the key aspects of new advanced biomaterial development is to understand and design new compositions of selected components. The important idea for bioapatite-based materials is the substitution of Ca by other elements, such as strontium. Here, we
